Mate in Two Moves

Winston K. Marks

Published in the early 1950s, 'Mate in Two Moves' by Winston K. Marks is a science fiction narrative set in a future society facing an epidemic that fuels a surge in romantic relationships. The story follows Dr. Sylvester Murt, a pathologist, as he navigates the emotional chaos induced by a love virus, known as 'Murt's Virus.' Alongside his assistant, Dr. Phyllis Sutton, he grapples with both the scientific implications of their research and their growing attraction to each other, leading to humorous and insightful consequences as they impulsively marry under the virus's influence.
